LILLIAN "LILLY" FAIRHEART (played by TANJA MILOJEVIC)

Lillian Fairheart (or "Lilly" for short) is the young niece of Waldo Riddendorf. Until recently she was a student at the Academy of Mages in the Town of Turse. But after having been spotted dabbling in the Dark Arts, Lilly sets off away from the Academy and her hometown of Turse in pursuit of the truth about the fate of her long-lost Father. This sets her off on a very dark path, motivated by her own desire to learn the truth about the past, as well as being pushed into action by the silver tongued promises of a Dark Lord of the Underworld known as Detlore. Lilly has clearly bitten off more than she bargained for, as this journey proves to be much more challenging than she ever imagined. The naive young woman must find new strength within herself as her journey takes her down darker and more dangerous branches on the Path.

DEVINE (played by SHANNON LOWERY)

Devine is the best friend of Lilly Fairheart who, upon learning of Lilly's flight from Turse, follows closely on her heels to ensure the safety of her naive friend.

She puts her life on hold, however, to help Lilly in her pursuit of the truth. This branch on the Path turns out to be particularly challenging, and Devine finds that she must find strengths within herself that perhaps she didn't even know she had, just to survive this latest chapter in her life.
